Left for dead by her abusive husband, Dakota Livingston manages to
survive and escape her tortured life with the help of her parents.
Months later she finds herself on a tropical island, on a holiday
to celebrate her new life.There she meets and falls in love with
Kyle Rutherford, a handsome movie actor. It's love at first sight
for both of them and it's time for Dakota to let go of the shackles
of her past and reach for that "happily ever after." What Dakota
doesn't realize is that her ex-husband has found out he didn't kill
her and ends up on the doorstep of her parents' house looking for
her. Upon learning that her ex has put her father in the hospital,
Dakota must leave her newfound bliss and return to deal with the
situation. But on her way home the plane she's on crashes, with
Dakota the only survivor. Drifting at sea for days, she's rescued
by local fisherman and taken to an island far more primitive than
the one she's just left. Here she befriends Daniel a 12-year-old
boy with secrets hauntingly similar to her own. With the two racing
against time to escape the island and Daniel's abusive father, the
real adventure begins as She Who Dares Wins reaches its dramatic
climax. Although she was born in New Zealand, author Amanda Mackey
has lived with her family on the Gold Coast of Australia since the
1980s. A part-time student, Amanda adores reading and is aspiring
to a full-time career as a writer. Publisher's website:
